How To See Detailed Information Of iTunes Backup?

I’ve searched but cannot find an answer to this situation. I backed up my iPhone 6 to my windows computer. I know the location of the backup file. I do not use the iCloud backup, I prefer keeping my backups on my machine. Question is, how to see the detailed content of the backup? Thanks in advance!
